Notes

Description
The Call: Finding and Fulfilling the Central Purpose of Your Life is especially written for those who feel a deep longing to understand their unique life-purpose--the ultimate "why" for living. It argues that such purpose can be found only when we discover the purpose for which we were created and to which we are called. There are no quick, easy answers to the myriad questions that surround calling. There are no formulas, steps, or programs that guarantee the discovery of a divine master plan, but The Call sets out the principles for all who seek their life's central purpose. How do I discover my calling? What does it have to do with identity and personal growth? Is calling only a spiritual idea or does it cover secular life too? How does calling affect work, career, and ideas of success? Does calling make a difference when we are unemployed or retired? Os Guinness writes ... "calling is not what it is commonly thought to be. It has to be dug out from under the rubble of ignorance and confusion. And uncomfortably it often flies directly in the face of our human inclinations. But no idea short of God's call can ground and fulfill the truest human desire for purpose and fulfillment." --Adapted from book jacket.
